Annick Terwagne

I was born in Charleroi (Belgium) on April 28, 1956. In 1986, I meet the Belgian photographer, Jean-François COLLIGNON who makes me discover photography, on the other side of the scene, in the capacity as model. In 2001, I launch out to discovered of the drawing and painting. Occasional pupil of the Academy of the Fine arts of Charleroi, I discover the joys of work on alive model, combined with the female one. I learn various techniques there going from the drawing with the pencil, with the charcoal, even with the pastel to then launch me in painting, inter alia, on wallpaper. The sensuality of my achievements, emanating fifteen years to work like model naked, gives the woman, naked, all her letters of nobility. One morning of spring, in 2002, I am in my workshop deprived in front of a block of clay. My hands start to knead the ground for slowly seeing appearing the sculpture of a naked woman, sitted. Since, I alternate the drawing with the pastel, painting and the sculpture while bringing all my female sensitivity there to represent the woman in his simple and noble pleasure.
